The recent expansion of the Reser's Fine Foods product recall for potential Listeria monocytogenes contamination has impacted select prepared foods offerings sold at Giant Eagle, Inc. locations in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland and West Virginia. As a result, Giant Eagle has implemented a voluntary recall of Diced Summer Slaw, Diced Summer Salad and several Grab and Go combo meals that may include Diced Summer Slaw.
Listeria can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people or those with compromised immune systems. It can also cause stillbirths and miscarriages. The Grab and Go combo meals include Barbeque Half Chicken combo, 2-Piece Dark Chicken combo, Parmesan Crusted Chicken combo and Chicken Breast and Wing combo. All affected items were sold in the prepared foods department, either behind the counter or out of the grab-and-go case with sell by dates between October 13, 2013 and October 29. All items had a three day shelf life.
Consumers may return affected product to any Giant Eagle supermarket location for a full refund. Those with questions may call Giant Eagle Customer Care at 1-800-553-2324 Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
